Class NERCombinerAnnotator

java.lang.Object
  edu.stanford.nlp.pipeline.NERCombinerAnnotator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Annotator

public class NERCombinerAnnotator
extends java.lang.Object
implements Annotator

This class will add NER information to an Annotation using a combination of NER models. It assumes that the Annotation already contains the tokenized words as a List<? extends CoreLabel> or a List<List<? extends CoreLabel>> under Annotation.WORDS_KEY and adds NER information to each CoreLabel, in the CoreLabel.NER_KEY field. It uses the NERClassifierCombiner class in the ie package.
